Mail skips inbox, gets "maildir" and "var" labels #8

Mail received by Mailpile apparently doesn't land in the inbox, but instead can only be found under labels. Specifically, each message seems to get the labels "maildir" and "var".

Any update on this?

Unfortunately, while it's on my list of TODOs, this probably won't get fixed until we overhaul the Sandstorm port of Mailpile. It seems that Mailpile has decided to deprecate maildir support and moved to IMAP as their main supported method of fetching mail. I may end up adding dovecot, similar to how the Sandstorm Roundcube port works.

We've actually removed the Mailpile port from the app market for now, but we're talking to the Mailpile team about having them directly target Sandstorm, which they seem interested in. (But they, like us, seem overworked...)

Thanks for the update guys and keep up the good work. I'll use Roundcube in the meantime, although the Mailpile UI is more exciting.
